That's a great photo Neil. Glad to see you got out riding!

It could be one of those Motivational Posters....

That picture is just past the overlook heading north,looking north.
Or,just south of the fire station just past the long straight heading
to Deckers,before you get to the overlook.
Here to help.

Ahhh, Horsepower Hill. Many a set of bike rubber tread, has graced the asphalt of that stretch of road.

Ah yes... Neil knows the spot from pics and vids from the same location. Here's a flyby recording from two years ago... Neil and Mark (GSX1K).

And the Bologna thing from the same location... Jefferson 126 (Deckers Rd.) between Buffalo Creek and Horsepower Hill.

Ha! Thats funny that you found this picture Steve... I was inspired to take it from your previous work there. My dad actually sent me a link to an excelent thread on a Beemer forum, detailing a ride to Woodland Park via Horsepower Hill. Good stuff. Im still waiting for the picture of a Tri-Colore in that spot! We will have to plan a ride out this summer.

Hopefully will connect Neil. Your R1 image there is excellent.

In the brief vid above, one can hear someone shooting in the background during the recording. Ugh.

Nice pic. I agree, it works as an inspirational poster. You should sell them at office max or something. Probably sell a ton. BTW finally got those pics up from saturday.

It is difficult to pick a single most favorite road here in Colorado but those three turns puts Deckers right up at the top. Going north when you see them open up in front of you...mmmm! Makin' me wet just thinkin' 'bout it.
